Remove before-compile setting in math/Makefile.
In <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-12/msg00543.html>, Florian noted highly parallel builds being slowed down by gen-libm-test.pl running during the build, when it should only run for testing, not for building glibc itself. This is a consequence of libm-test.c being listed in before-compile. That listing in before-compile arose from the error reported in <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-hacker/1999-10/msg00054.html> when building dependencies: at that time, dependencies were generated separation from compilation, so if a source file included a generated file it wasn't enough for the dependencies for the .o file to be correct, the generated file needed to be listed in before-compile. Since <https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-hacker/2003-05/msg00001.html>, dependencies are generated as a side-effect of compilation. This means that having the right dependencies for the .o files for the tests fully suffices to ensure that libm-test.c is generated by the time it's needed; no entry in before-compile is needed. And we indeed have such a dependency for all the tests using libm-test.c: $(addprefix $(objpfx), $(libm-tests.o)): $(objpfx)libm-test.stmp Thus, the before-compile definition is unnecessary, and this patch removes it. (This may of course move serialization from the glibc build to glibc testing, but I intend to split up libm-test.inc so that tests for each (floating-point type, libm function) pair are built and run separately, which should reduce that serialization.) Tested for x86_64. * math/Makefile (before-compile): Remove.
